I have a build week of 8/9 but no window sticker or estimated delivery. So if others have an estimated delivery of 10/31 where does that leave me? Delivery after 10/31?
Totally unacceptable. Maybe FMC doesn’t care about our dilemma now but they will in the future when they have plenty of cars but many many potential buyers that realized that in 2021 they couldn’t have cared less
about us. Build and deliver according to when the order was placed. That’s all I ask.
Justifiable frustrations...makes no sense why you are being strung out so far, they will sell vehicles. I hope you find a way through it in the end.​

Ya I got the 10/31 bombshell. Oder date was 2/9. Was supposedly in production 6/4. My salesman is going to get his manager to check on some restricted site that has all the detail and get back to me. Still hoping its a glitch. Pissed off that others with later order dates and similar builds are getting their Broncos built and shipped. Happy for them but it makes for a very uneasy feeling when I already feel we are rolling the dice on a first year build.

My wife and I don't want to wait another five months with no guarantee that five months will even happen. If we don't get much better news in the next couple of days we are going to buy a Mazda CX-5 Turbo while one we want is still available. Then we will circle back to a BS or full size Bronco in a couple of years once the craziness settles down and first year glitches are worked out.
this sounds like our exact story, ordered in January, production 6/3. I’m fed up. Wish there would be some more information of what is holding ours up since others BL+BL that ordered later have received theirs. Seems like something fishy is going on, very little trust with Ford despite being a Ford family for so many years. We are also looking at the Mazda CX-5 as the alternative.

Only reason I see builds leap frogging others that were ordered prior is dealership size/importance to Ford. Not cool if that is the reason, but that is the only logical reason I can think of. Any other reason seems to be just random picking.

Pushed back twice already. I have no faith left in FMC.
wait until it's pushed 5 times, enters production and then gets pushed another 5 months. I'm done.

Anyone with the stupid 10/31 delivery date actually waiting? I’m considering cancelling and looking at other vehicle options.
I'm keeping my order but buying something in the interim. If I like it I'll keep it and perhaps sell the Bronco at a profit depending on the market when it arrives. I'm in Oregon so no sales tax which makes this a possibility.

Anyone get a June 21 build week email on June 1 when Ford said in May plant shut down last two weeks of June? Dealer confirmed June 21 build week and they have no other info.

I don't even have a build date yet, but I'm just going to wait it out. I don't NEED a new vehicle, but I sure do want one.

Funny you ask, it just changed to the 10/31.
So it shipped with 10/31 ETA? Wonder where it shipped to? Holding yard? I hope it mistake and its complete and shows up at dealer.

21 Sport BB
Hey all, new BB owner here.... we just got the only one in stock on Saturday here in Daytona. My wife wanted area 51 and at least outer banks package. The local ford dealer is high volume and they kept pushing us to go ahead and just order one....until I asked realistically what would be the wait time....crickets.... then manager guy says. If I wanted a Bronco I'd take any one you can find on a lot as the chip shortage is making it impossible to be honest on order times. She took the black BB and we drove home. They received 4 BB on Friday and 4 were in the sold pick up garage by 9am Saturday.
